English translation

654. It was narrated that ‘Amr bin Aws said: “A man of Thaḥqîf told us that he heard the caller of the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ on a rainy night during a journey saying: ‘Hayya ‘ala aṣ-ṣalâh, Hayya ‘ala al-falâh, sallû fi riḥâlikum’ (Come to prayer, come to prosperity, pray in your dwellings).” (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Arabic text

653 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ أَوْسٍ يَقُولُ: أَنْبَأَنَا رَجُلٌ مِنْ ثَقِيفٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ مُنَادِيَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَعْنِي فِي لَيْلَةٍ مَطِيرَةٍ فِي السَّفَرِ - يَقُولُ: «حَيَّ عَلَى الصَّلَاةِ. حَيَّ عَلَى الْفَلَاحِ. صَلُّوا فِي رِحَالِكُمْ»

Commentary

The apparent wording demonstrates that Hayya 'alas-salâh, hayya 'alal-falâh would be pronounced singly. But this is an abbreviation. Like the common Adhân, in the Adhân pronounced while it is raining, these phrases would also be pronounced paired twice. Not only that, but the wording: sallû fi buyûtikum or sallû fi rihâlikum: ("pray in your homes" or "behold! pray in your dwellings or places of abode") would also be called out twice.
